Blue Grass Airport weighing interest in adding Florida flights

Blue Grass Airport is conducting a survey to gauge interest in adding a non-stop flight to Miami or Fort Lauderdale in Florida.

Those are the top destinations not currently serviced by the airport, said spokesman Brian Ellestad.

"We just want to engage the community and get feedback," he said. "We're just trying to collect data."

The airport once had non-stop service to Fort Lauderdale, but Delta discontinued it in late 2005, just a few months after it began. To take the survey, visit Blue Grass Airport's Web site at www.bluegrassairport.com.
